A day out in Vancouver



Went to Capilano Suspension Bridge and park . The park was wonderful. It was quite warm outside but in the park it was like a rain forest (in fact a 300 year old rain forest)  and nice and cool. We went across the suspension bridge - felt like I had my wobbly boots on lol There was also a cliff edgewalk GULP!  After lunch we booked into the YHA and went into Vancouver itself. It wasthe day of the Zombie walk and there were some hilarious costumes and a seriously good Jack Sparrow.
. After the Zombie walk we went to Granville St where they were doing street Karaoke. There were some really bad singers but the few good ones were well worth the wait. One young girl about the size of Tom Thumb was obviously an opera singer and had the most tremendous and powerful voice. She was so little I don't know where she kept it when she wasn't using it. lol.  We sat on the side of the road for over 2 hours in a nice balmy summer evening - was lovely. Went off food hunting after this and ended up over indulging in the beautiful food at a Japanese Restaurant. This is going to have to stop or I'll have a lot of excess baggage to account for  Bugs # 447
